measuring viscoelastic properties of Red Blood Cell using optical tweezers
Efforts have been made to study the behavior of complex materials in micrometer dimensions with various techniques. One of these methods is the use of optical tweezers for biophysical applications. Red blood cells, as the most abundant blood-forming cells, play an important role in the life of living organisms, and their unique mechanical properties are important. In this report, the study of s...
متن کاملMiddle cerebral artery blood velocity and cerebral blood flow in sickle cell disease.
To understand better the relationship between blood velocity measured by transcranial Doppler and cerebral blood flow measured by the 133Xe inhalation method, we examined 23 patients undergoing evaluation in the Comprehensive Sickle Cell Center at Columbia University. Blood velocity in the middle cerebral artery was directly related to cerebral flow (r = 0.77; p less than 0.05). A multivariate ...
متن کاملMacular blood flow velocity in sickle cell disease: relation to red cell density.
AIMS/BACKGROUND While the retinal lesions of sickle cell retinopathy have been well documented, their pathogenesis remains unclear. The purpose of this study was (1) to compare macular blood flow velocity in patients with sickle cell disease and controls, and (2) to determine in sickle cell patients the relation between macular blood flow velocity and red blood cell density. METHODS Macular b...
متن کاملCoronary flow reserve in sickle cell anemia.
BACKGROUND Patients with sickle cell anemia (SCA) frequently present with episodes of chest pain, alterations in the resting electrocardiogram, and changes in cardiac structure and functions. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of recurrent episodes of vaso-occlusion on the coronary microcirculation. METHODS Coronary flow velocity and coronary flow reserve (CFR) of stable patients with SCA (n=...
